      I would like to try my hand at adding feature (or plugin?)

      I would like to implement a Captive Portal authentication scheme using mongodb and a church management API.
      Would this be a whole new feature or can I just design a plugin that works with captive portal?

      Thanks.

        You might want to leave captive portal alone and get your backend working behind a RADIUS server instead.

          FreeRadius sounds nice  …

          I was thinking of ...

          wifi request --> software api < does email exist ?> [if email exists and email is member: grant 30day pass |if email does not exist or if email is not member: grant 2 hour pass]

          store email, timestamp and mac in mongodb for customized messages and more
